"...A façade? How?"
"...Don't ask anymore. I will not answer." Envy responds, his voice growing more stern with every word as looks at Mumei.
"...'kay, well... since we're all back to being buddies... let's go back to Mumei's room and party!" Bae proposes, her toothy smile returning.
"...Y-yeah, I agree." Mumei nods shortly, unsure of how to take Envy's words.
"...Agreed."
The three quickly take off back to Mumei's flat, entering through the window, Mumei first, Bae second and Envy last.
Gura welcomes the three cheekily and soon, they all find themselves enjoying each other's company.
Bae pulled a deck of UNO cards from god knows where, quickly proposing to play UNO, to which everyone agreed.
Currently, a green four is the card on the top of the pile.
Mumei has 5 cards, Gura has 2 cards while Bae has 6 cards.
The three all sit in a circle on the bed, Bae sitting with her legs crossed, same with Gura while Mumei is sitting with her legs in the shape of a W.
"Bae, stay a turn." Mumei says as she places a green skip card on the pile.
"Ugh, seriously?!" She comment, her shoulders dropping as she rolls her eyes.
"...Draw a... plus four!" Gura says as she places a wild draw four card, meaning Mumei has to take four cards from the deck while Gura gets to choose the colour she wants it to be.
"...Phew... okay..." She draws the cards, making a sad face that seems... oddly false, though the others don't pick up on it.
Next up is Bae.
"Gura... won't you choose the colour?" The owl girl asks as she tilts her head, leaning towards the pile of cards, waiting to drop her own in.
"...Huh...? Oh, yeah! Uh, make it red!" She looks at her, giggling nervously at her mistake.
"Okay, here's a... red six." She places the card down.
"Nah, I like it blue~" Bae flicks a blue six card, causing it to fly around the room before landing straight on the pile.
Envy listens in to the three playing as they sit on the bed while he leans back against the window that Bae charged him out of the apartment through.
~~~~~
It doesn't take much time for the three to finish their game... if you consider two hours to not be long, having played five matches worth of a good time.
"Haah... well, wanna play something else?" Bae says as she plops back on the bed, stretching her arms over her head, cracking her back a little bit as she does.
"...No, I have things I still need to talk about with... Envy?" She glances over to the window... but he's not there.
"Where'd he go?" She asks, looking back at the two. Bae lifts herself up as Gura shrugs.
"...God, can't he just stand still?!"
At the same time, inside YAGOO's office, Envy can be found standing in front of the CEO's desk.
"...Are you able to send me back yet?"
"Yes, we are. Sana has returned and she's ready to send you back. She can't stay long though, so you either go today... or wait... uhh, a few more days."
"...I'll leave today."
"...Understood. In that case, let me call her over. You'll be meeting her where you originally met the girls from Holomyth. You know, right? That field."
"...yes, goodbye, YAGOO."
"...Goodbye to you too, Envy."
With that, Envy leaves the office before quickly going downstairs. As soon as he gets through the sliding doors, he quickly takes off into the air, rushing over to the fields where it all started.
"...Sorry, Amelia. We won't be meeting tomorrow." He thinks to himself as he soars above the clouds, the bright sun clear for him to... not see.
As soon as he arrives there, falling gently onto the green ground, a portal opens up and Sana walks out of it.
For a moment, he's surprised, though he doesn't show it, at the sudden appearance.
"...Hey~! You must be Envy, right~? Well, nice to meet you, I'm Sana!"
"...Nice to meet you."
"So, you wanna get back to your own universe, hm~?"
"...yes."
"Alright then, lemme take a good look at you~" She steps closer to him, examining his body closely for any hints as to where he may be from.
"Snff... Snff..." Did she just sniff him...?
"Hmm... I think I know the place!"
"...Then take me there."
She puffs her chest out, said part of her body jiggling aggressively as she does so.
"Of course!"
Without warning, her body starts to grow more and more, until she can hold Envy in the palm of her hand.
"...Well, c'mon, get on!" She holds her hand out just above the ground for him to step onto it, which he does.
"...How are you doing this?" He asks as she brings him up to her face, her ginormous, golden eyes shining bright as they look at each other.
"I'm the concept of space, silly! Why are you even surprised that I can grow big~?"
"...Right..." It doesn't answe his question at all, not in the way he wanted at least.
"Okay, are you ready? This may seem a little scary at first, but don't worry! You'll be fine... as long as you don't peek out, that is!" She giggles shortly after the last part of her sentence.
"..." He simply stares at her, probably confused.
"Well, are you ready?"
"...yes."
"Okay, got it!" She suddenly brings the other hand up to him, entrapping him between the two. Inside, it's dark and her body heat can be felt, but there's also a faint smell of... bread?
A portal opens up, but before Sana can pass through, Envy's voice comes out of from between her palms.
"Hold on, I want to tell you something."
"...Hm? Okay." She opens them up.
"...Tell Mumei not to come looking for me. Don't let her look for me."
"...O...kaaay... I will..." She tilts her head suspiciously.
"...Thank you, Sana."
"...No problem. Now hush~" She wraps her hands around his body again as she steps through the portal.
